01Tube Screamer (built-in Code effect)
Use the Code's built-in Tubescreamer as a clean boost to tighten low end and push mids - essential for the Måneskin attack
Thomas uses single-coil Fenders into Marshalls. Your Epiphone Les Paul humbuckers are hotter and warmer, so I dropped gain by 1 (from what a Strat would need) and cut bass by 1 to prevent mud. Mid pushed to 7 to capture that nasal, aggressive bark that defines Måneskin's sound. The Code's JCM800 model nails this era.
